2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, compact discs (hereinafter referred to as CDs) have been used as recording media for recording and reproducing in place of recording tapes.
Has been popularized and used. Each of these compact discs is housed in a protective case to protect the surface. When these CD cases are not used, the CD cases are simply stacked or stored in a packaging case made of cardboard or the like at the time of sale.

In such a storage and storage state of the CD case, it is difficult to take out the CD case at the time of use, it is troublesome, and the packaging case is easily damaged. As a result, the CD cases are left untidy on the desk, etc., and they are poorly organized, and when sequentially recording and playing back consecutive CDs, the order of the CD cases must be confirmed one by one. It was extremely inconvenient to handle.

In order to solve such a problem, as shown in FIG. 10, left and right side plates 1, 2, upper and lower side plates 3,
4 and the rear plate 5 form a box body 6 having a front opening, and a CD case 7 is formed on a surface of the box body 6 facing the upper plate 3 and the lower plate 4.
A storage box for a plastic injection-molded product has been proposed, which is provided with upper and lower partitioning grooves 8 and 9 for storing therein, and further has a spring 10 for projecting the CD case 7 accommodated in the rear face plate 5 toward the opening side. .

The front lower end 7a of the CD case 7 while pushing the front upper end 7a of the CD case 7 toward the rear plate 5 side.
Since the locking of the stopper plate 4a of the lower plate 4 with which the b is engaged is released, the front upper end portion 7a of the CD case 7 is released.
A wide space 11 is required to push up.

The need for such a wide space 11 means that the storage box is taller than the CD case 7,
It becomes bulky. In addition, since there is a wide space 11 between the partition groove 8 and the upper end surface of the CD case 7, the CD case 7 stored and stored in the storage box rattles upward and downward, which may cause a slight impact on the storage box. CD case 7 stored even against
Is released from the stopper 4a and pops out of the storage box. Furthermore, since the weight of the storage box itself is light,
When the CD case 7 is taken out, one hand restricts the rearward movement of the storage box, while the other hand presses the upper end portion 7a of the front surface of the CD case 7 so as to push it obliquely upward to push the stopper 4a. It has to be taken out by a two-handed operation of releasing the lock of the, and there is a problem that it is extremely troublesome.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the storage height of the storage portion of the storage box is set to the CD.
Since the height of the case 7 can be made almost the same as the height of the case 7, it is possible to prevent rattling of the CD case 7 during storage and to provide a case storage box such as a compact disc that can be easily removed with one touch.
